Older and Bolder -- The Joys and Challenges of Growing Old

The Older Bolder Group meeting on January 14 is an Open Forum where everyone has the opportunity to share news, resolutions, books read, rejoicings, etc., that flow from Joys and Challenges of Growing Old.  We will also hear a proposal from the ad hoc planning committee for 2012 programs. Older and Bolder is a part study/part discussion group sharing information, resources, experiences that improve and enrich our journey into elderhood.  There are no age requirements, no dues, no attendance requirements.  We do respect each person's time to speak.   We meet in the Art Gallery at the Senior Center from 10  to 11:30 am and everyone is welcome.  For more information call Mary at 767-1889.
